From being a keyholder at American Apparel straight to Tarzana Treatment Center.

This week on It’s All Bad, Uncle Paulie aka Paulie James crashes the party, Growing up in NY, Takes us on his journey to recovery and coming up around his mom’s comedy club after being conceived at a Clash concert. Meanwhile Reno spends the whole episode trying to hide his massive man crush.

Hey Foo, Dave Manheim from @dopeypodcast pulls up with the fellas—swapping wild Dopey stories, debating harm reduction vs. abstinence, and opening up about losing a co-host and brother. We laugh, we get dark, and we rewind to when it really was all bad. Big thanks for having us at Dopeywood and christening the new studio as our first guest.

Today we’ve got our good friend, legendary skateboarder Jimmy Gorecki on the deck. Growing up just outside of Philly above a funeral parlor, Jimmy found his way to a local skatepark at 12, splitting his early years between skating and wrestling. Somewhere in that mix came the chaos too, by way of the bottle. That push-and-pull sharpened his edge, but it was one pivotal moment—landing a clean Backside Lipslide on a handrail across from Love Park—that set everything in motion. The trick was caught on film, and from there, things moved fast.That clip carried Jimmy far beyond Philly, opening doors around the world and eventually catching the attention of Fred Savage, who brought him on as a consultant for Zeke & Luther. From there, Jimmy carved out a new lane, transitioning from skateboarding into the world of streetwear, where his influence continues to resonate.

This one’s straight outta Covina — the sobriety capital of the world…or at least that’s what they told themselves. Covina’s finest: Keith, Larry, and Chris trade war stories while Reno tries to keep up. From barefoot tweaker missions and 92-day crack runs to prison stretches, scrapyard scores, and the legendary Fish Bong incident…this one goes all the way off the rails.

Welcome back to Season 5 of It’s All Bad. The boys are back and officially off house arrest—the statute of limitations is up on Dead City Punks, and Keith, Reno, and Danny are coming in hot with a full-blown return to form.
We’re kicking things off with some extremely wet PCP stories, a deep dive into Dead City history, and raw tales from the streets with Danny, Grumpy, and Mike. It’s everything you’ve been missing—unfiltered chaos, hard-earned wisdom, and a whole lot of classic It’s All Bad shenanigans.
Plus, don’t miss the Dead City documentary premiering this Thursday at The Regent in Downtown LA. Pull up to the art show this Friday at Beyond the Streets, and do yourself a favor—get to a Dead City show ASAP. It’s not just a show… it’s a spiritual experience.

We are so back! Reno, Keith and Danny are finally off house arrest and back in the saddle. We have a new studio. New guests. We’re back on patreon and can’t wait to show you what tricks we got up our sleeves! Join us this Monday to kick off the season with a brand new episode from Dead City Punx
